This car has 23 HP and weights 650 kg. It's a little extreme, but any modern car can haul a trailer no problem. You don't need an SUV.
This car has 23 HP and weights 650 kg. It's a little extreme, but any modern car can haul a trailer no problem. You don't need an SUV.
But this exact 23 HP 650 kg car can legally pull 400 kg trailer (as long as it has breaks - 300 kg without). And I've seen it done on public roads in 90s. Maybe it wasn't full capacity so let's say 200 kg but still. That's already more than you can fit in most SUVs.
A modern 100 HP 1500 kg sedan can pull more than most people will ever need. And they do - outside US. Somehow in US you need a 2500 kg truck to do the same. I just don't understand.
